Step 3 - When the option is selected, the user will need to give it three pieces of information (Fig.3).

 

Number of Transactions - Number of copies

 

G/L Period - First or starting G/L period for the first copy. Will automatically increment for each subsequent copy

 

Transaction Date - First transaction date for the first copy. Automatically adds thirty days for each subsequent copy.

 

Note 1 - The user must have the required G/L periods established. They do not have to be open periods.

Note 2 - In the case of Purchases and Sales, the assigned invoice number is the same as the G/L period code. The Recurring Entry button is activated when an existing transaction is recalled to the screen. This will be the transaction that is copied.
